Misinterpreting Bad

Understanding what the other person is saying is a large factor in communicating within a relationship. Texting allows people to say whatever they want without being scared of the other person’s physical reaction. Talking in person or over the phone makes it more difficult to talk about serious issues when one is afraid of how the other person may feel or what the other person will say in return.

There are some occasions when bullies are not afraid to say hurtful things to others’

Texting is very impersonal and not a substitute for real conversations because you cannot see the other person’s expressions and emotions. Texting each other is also not the same as having a real conversation because the definition of a conversation is “the informal exchange of spoken words” according to the dictionary.

Texting and messaging is our primary method of communication in the modern age. It’s instant and there are no time restraints. What’s not to love?

This is what makes texting such a minefield when it comes to romance.

We live in a controversial world in which communication is a must. Do you ever find yourself in a rushed scenario when you are communicating with someone over text but you are in such a hurry that you insist on calling them instead? Or are you in a really important conversation and it is just too much to type all of it out when it would take you five minutes to say over the phone? These are only just two situations that can play a role in deciding if you like texting over calling, or vise versa. Some factors that help compare the two are how fast or slow it is, if you can tell if the conversation is emotionally authentic, or how they are alternating over time.

There are many different opinions on whether texting or talking is better, and there are positives and negatives for both options. For example, texting may be superior because that person might not want to start a long conversation. If a person wanted to have a longer conversation, they may decide to call to that individual to understand the conversation better. Every person has a different preference.

“Texting also allows for a faster transfer of information as it only takes less than one minute to spread information,” states Richard Ling an associate for Version Wireless. Texting is simply an easier way to communicate with many different people all at the same time. Ling also gives the example of having to call six different friends individually, people are now able to get on their cell phones and ask all six friends the same question at once with ease. Someone can text what they are feeling just as easily as saying something aloud. Some would even go as far as to say that it is easier to get all your feelings out through a text rather than fumble your way through talking to someone in person; with texting, one is able to first read ones thoughts before sending them out.

People say, "I'll tell you what's wrong with having a conversation. It takes place in real time and you can't control what you're going to say." So that's the bottom line. Texting, email, posting, all of these things let us present the self as we want to

Once you realize this, you can find yourself stressed out over the fact that there just does not seem to be enough hours in the day to do what you wish. You find that it is easier to send a text message because that does not involve the time consuming process of going to someone's house to talk to them.
